"The one thing that you can’t take away from me is the way I CHOOSE to respond to what you have done to me. The last of one’s freedoms is the ability to choose one’s attitude in any given circumstance. "

– Viktor Frankl

Therapy

There are times in everyone’s life when we need help in holding, understanding, and moving through painful and stressful experiences. There are times when we need to simply have a place to put things down to sort them out. In the not so distant past, seeing a therapist to talk through something might have been met with a certain amount of social stigma and embarrassment. Fortunately, this is really not the case anymore.

My training and background are existential-phenomenological and humanistic. My approach to therapy is to allow you, the client, to teach me about the ways that you suffer and what helps in alleviating that suffering. I believe that the relationship of trust and safety that we build together is the platform for moving through painful memories and experiences.
